Tulsa-based oil and gas explorer and producer Arena Resources Inc., an OIPA member company, will be one of five companies profiled in a CNBC special on the nation's fastest-growing companies.
"Fastest Growing Companies of 2009" also will feature Deckers Outdoor Corp., Chipotle restaurants, BlackRock financial firm and the unnamed No. 1 company.
The show will air at 8 p.m. Wednesday.
Arena Resources was founded nine years ago by Tim Rochford and Stanley McCabe, who remain with the firm as chairman and director, respectively. Phillip Terry is CEO.
Last year, Fortune put Arena atop its list of fastest-growing companies. CNBC will interview Rochford and Terry to discuss the drilling strategies that have kept Arena growing and relatively debt-free.
